Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015073503A1] Various systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for accessing a storage device are described. In certain example embodiments, an active/active fault-tolerant storage device comprising two or more controllers may be implemented. In one aspect, each controller may have two or more processing entities for distributing the processing of the I/O requests. In one embodiment, the configuration of the components, modules and the controller board may be arranged in a manner to enhance heat dissipation, reduce power consumption, spread the power and work load, and reduce latency. In one embodiment, each controller may be coupled to the non-volatile memory (NVM) blades comprising the non-volatile memory (NVM) storage medium. In one example implementation, a standardized protocol, such as the Peripheral Component Interconnect Express protocol may be used for communicating amongst the various components of the controller and also the NVM storage medium.
